Unfortunately where I come from the biggest, baddest, lifted monster truck is for soccer moms and people working in offices. Why they buy such monstrosities I do not know but if I look down my street I am almost the only one without one. Gonna be funny when gas prices climb again!

Where I come from, trucks are for people in the construction trades or farmers, with no disrespect to those professions, with plenty of general contractors and even a fisherman in the family. But when 5 PM hits, you park the truck and switch to your car. Taking your wife or girlfriend to dinner in a truck is well, not…

Probably more than enough for a fun ride, yes?

Best bang for your buck right there.

40hp, 100% serious here

For the poor man.

Times have changed, I believe driving any sports car now does not qualifies you as an asshole nowadays... However, driving a brand new luxury SUV is the defacto choice for today’s discerning a-hole

Step 1. dont care what others think.

no.

seriously.

Dont SAY you dont care, but really do care. Be self-confident to the point that you honestly dont care what randon peoples opinion of you are.... then move on with your life.

I expected a lot more defense of the gumball. I’m glad everyone’s on the same page that this is reckless, stupid, and grumpy-cat worthy.

Keep your unobtainable to the U.S. cars out of this conversation!

That does seem to be the case, which is a shame. That said, if you’re not tracking it you probably don’t need it. Test drove one with my wife a few weeks ago and it seemed fine to me. She really love the car. Being in AZ, snow and such isn’t really an issue.

In spite of the software savings, there’s no way the thing is only 7 grand.

Just a snarky comment. But to be fair I’ll take speeding supercars over the texting, chatting, drunk, unregistered car driving assholes that make a mockery of driving safety on a daily basis. And on the autbahn it isn’t reckless endangerment.

Sigh. I did Gumball it’s first year in the US (2000 or 2001, can’t remember and too lazy to check) in a 1999 Mercedes-Brabus SLK, from NYC to the Playboy Mansion. It was a blast, and not the rolling douche-circus it’s become today. The entry fee was only like $15k at the time and everyone tried to fly under the radar,…

Excellent work, Germany. Sounds like a lot of sensible suggestions to minimise the risk to the general public of a large number of rich douchebags behaving as such.

This is my dream.

The tiniest violin isn’t small enough...
